This appears even less functional on the Storm than it was when originally leaked several weeks ago. Using the P and Q keys on the touch menu (full keyboard/landscape) I can't get past entering my Skype name. Can't type in a password. As Jlevy73 noted, it appears very raw....definitely not yet ready for prime time. If anyone figures out a way to work through this program on the Storm, I'd be extremely appreciative if they'd detail their methodology. Thanks all on BBOS!

The requested .121 version does not work on my Bold with the new hybrid v1.
I was able to uninstall the update and still use 1.0
Connected able to chat but im having trouble making calls. Gonna fiddle more

I would be interested in seeing this too Toy, by the way long time no see. Glad to have you back.

Using the Tour though, I broke through and actually made a call using it. Quality wasn't great but I was able to message and what not and that part worked well. It's still is a very early release but look forward to further refinements of this app.

did anyone actually get this to work on the storm yet? Because I cant for the life of me!!!

Ok I did get it to work on the Storm however... it is broke a little. step by step on what I did to get it to work.

1. install the app on your blackberry (I know I am a smart ass)
2 go to application under advanced options set permissions accordingly
3 turn compatibility mode on
4 go to keyboard/screen layout make sure full keyboard is enabled in portrait mode.
5 Open your APP your screen is the trackball and the space ball is the trackball button. The M and the P key are the menu and back button. Go into Menu>settings and select auto log on (trust me makes things a lot easier)
6 after that it is just a matter of setting things up and loging in. when you put in your username and password it brings up seperate window to type in a lot like the bolt or operal mini browser and you are good to go.
7 Once you log in DO NOT install update... it errors out and you end up deleting it.

To me it wasnt practical to use. I tried making a call it did work however it did not make the call VoIP it routed my call to an 816 number. And that might be a setting issue I didnt take time to figure out. I dont know if it is a verizon number or not. im waiting for my call log on verizon to update so i can let you know.

***********UPDATE************
So I checked the call log and the 4 or 5 calls i made on skype didnt eat up any minutes. So I am guessing this is a Verizon number specifically set up for skype. So I guess it is free calls and such.
